About This Book
A parent would reach for this book when their teenager is grappling with the comedic but crushing weight of social anxiety, the confusion of first relationships, or the fear that their life is a series of embarrassing mishaps. This sequel to 'Noah Can't Even' follows Noah as he tries to navigate his first real boyfriend, a chaotic family life, and a local mystery that threatens to derail his already fragile sense of self. It is a brilliant resource for normalizing the awkwardness of the LGBTQ+ teenage experience without being a heavy 'issue' book. The story emphasizes that everyone, even the adults, is making it up as they go along. It offers a hilarious look at self-confidence, honesty, and the importance of staying true to oneself despite peer pressure. While it contains some mature British humor and teen romance, it remains a heart-centered choice for parents looking to support a teen who feels a bit like an outsider or who needs to see that mistakes are just part of growing up.
